I am sick of cables


I have owned cables like Nordost Valhalla, Purist Audio 20th anniversary, Acoustic Zen Silver Reference, Virtual Dynamics Revelation, Argento Serenity. I have also auditioned cables like stealth indra in my system.

All I can say is that I am sick of cables, don't want to talk about them, audition them, not even see them....lol

Right now I have found a great combination of less expensive cables than the above which are perfect with MY equipment.

I was wondering why studios that record the music we are listening are not using super expensive cables...

In my humble opinion IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE AFTER, the most expensive cables are not necessarily better...

I said it, now I feel better...

I am no expert but my opinion continues to be that expensive cables make a very subtle impact. An entire system of very expensive cables can easily exceed $10,000. I suggest finding a good cable that is transparent and spending the savings on upgrading components. For instance if I have $15,000 speakers and $7500 worth of speaker cables, the sound would ultimately improve more if I substituted $1500 for good speaker cables and $21,500 for an upgrade in speakers (and so on).
hi doug (and others):

before judging other people, look at yourself in the mirror. he who is perfect may cast the first stone.

since we are imperfect, we either do, at times what we shouldn't or don't do what we should. it would better to correct our own behavior, than find fault with others, lest we be judged hypocrites.
OH MY GOD!!! I got my hands on a new MIT Oracle V1.2 Proline IC for my system (front end CD/SACD)and I must say that I have NEVER HEARD ANYTHING as transformative in any system...ever!! This isn't subtle folks, this interface does what no other cable I have heard, owned or demo'd or could ever imagine any other cable doing...words cannot convey the majesty and awe inspiring beauty that this cable enables my components to pass along. Any serious audiophile NEEDS to at least demo this IC asap in their system just to realize what is possible..Joe Abrams at Equus Audio can help anyone interested in hearing beyond the ordinary:O)
First off, how is it some kind of revelation that price does not necessarily correspond to performance; the shocking part is that someone just now figured it out.

With regard to MIT, if you think the Oracle 1.2 is something, try Magnum MA or, if you're feeling bold, Oracle MA.
"First off, how is it some kind of revelation that price does not necessarily correspond to performance; the shocking part is that someone just now figured it out."

MIT Dave_b example says otherwise - unless you think that Oracle v1.2 Proline retailed at $6500 is inexpensive? In that case I'm perhaps living on the wrong side of the tracks.
